I just ran from Riverwood to Karthspire, managed to lose Delphine, and Esbern taking a shortcut through Brittleshin Pass, and ran into 3 Dragons on the way. I also ran into a Wolf. Now, I know that at some point Dragon encounters ramp up to overshadow all others, but I just happened to be a level 3 Mage with 30 something in Destruction. I picked up a couple levels in there, but really, don't you think that's a little excessive? 2 of them were named, and the 3rd was the Blood Dragon you expect to find at the redoubt, that's not counting the other 2 I saw on the way, but managed to avoid. Sheesh, luckilly the other random encounter was an Imperial patrol that helped me with the first, the second I managed to kite to Rorikstead, and the bloody followed me back to Solijen's Sinkhole. Next time, I'm bringing a follower!

Nah, your dragon attack pales in comparison to mine. So, i'm level 12, about to enter Sovngarde. I used storm call, dragon priest is incinerated. A frost dragon and an Elder dragon came by...and yes, they dealt They dealt the exact same damage and had the same amount of health like when you encounter them at levels 30-40. That was fun. Anyway, 2 named dragons? also, you notice, psiberzerker, every.f***ing.time.you.get.to.KarthspireA god damn blood dragon spawns. Hell, i have 5 characters and all encountered a blood dragon near that bridge...

Isn't there some kind of glitch related to excessive dragon spawning? I've been pretty lucky so far, I fast travel a lot and contrary to what people said would happen, i rarely ever get attacked by dragons afterwards. Unless I purposefully go to a dragon lair place I probably only get about 1-2 random dragons swoop down out of nowhere per week. But if I do get a dragon its almost always an Ancient dragon and those can be tough for me.. I was initially so scared of being attacked by dragons every 5 mins, or having all my towns people slaughtered by them that I didn't want to do the main quest and even after I finished it I had kept a dragon-free save file. Still annoys me abit that my poor lil dawnstar gets rampaged by an ancient dragon almost every time I go..but that's as annoying as they've gotten for me thankfully

Looks like I got lucky, 1 named dragon and the *bleep*ING BLOOD DRAGON.

Also the_Famas_pro try that at Level 4... LEVEL *bleep*ING 4. I did manage to kill the irst one a few times, but always forgot to make a save, forcing me to restart soon afterward, plus these two *bleep*ers and the Bloody mother*bleep*ing Dragon in the Reach, seemed to learn exactly what I needed to do and *bleep*ing countered every single *bleep*ing time. It *bleep*ing made me rage.

psiberzerker, I was level 3 when I did that and up to 1 room away from Blackreach.

For the million reasons why you might think he's not into you, there are at least a million more that could be the complete opposite. Hang in there, I know it's so tough to get out of your own head, but don't let it eat away at you.

Here's a hell of a dragon encounter for all of you. I traveled to Falkreth and saw a fight between some Vampires and the Dawnguard. At the same time, a Revered Dragon appeared and killed most of them. Then it attacked me, but i killed it

Last time I saw a dragon(Elder Dragon), I was level 42, had 100 Smithing, 100 Enchanting, 97 Heavy Armor(buffed), and 89 One Hand. My Daedric Sword is Legendary, something like 92 or 110 damage(I don't remember), with Absorb Health 20 pts, and Soul Trap(which has no effect on dragons). I have roughly 450 armor, 380ish Health, and 220ish Stamina(I've never put any into Magicka). I killed it with I think, 4 regular attacks, and two power attacks. I do make use of Dragonrend when possible. I'm also using the Elemental shield resistance perk.

J'zargo is following me, and almost always uses his lightning on my opponents. This dragon was no exception.

I'll be honest, I have yet to encounter more than two dragons at the same time, and that only happened to me once. It sounds like you're describing a situation where the dragons appeared consecutively, and not simultaneously. Given that scenario, I would not have any problem with three such dragons. I'd welcome the loot and the dragon souls, although honestly, I have several words of power which I have no interest in unlocking at this time, because I simply feel like they are unnecessary. Subsequently, I have numerous souls which are just waiting to be used, and therefore no real interest in collecting more souls, other than for bragging rights.

What I'd really like to see is a mod which allows you to use a dragon soul to enchant an item. It frustrates me that there's no way to put a dragon soul into a soul gem rather than absorbing it dovahkiin style.

At least grand souls are easy enough to come by between mammoth hunting and Enthir's black (soul gem) market.

I must be going to the wrong places to trigger lots of dragons. There always seems to be one at Riverwood though and West of Riverwood over the river/lake area. Or it's luck of the draw or something, if it's just random event and you have a recent quick-save, doing a quick-load usually solves it - if it bugs you - or is that a risky word to use.

A frost dragon and an Elder dragon came by...and yes, they dealt They dealt the exact same damage and had the same amount of health like when you encounter them at levels 30-40.

Ah, I know what happened, see, when you get to the top of Skuldafn to fight the Dragon Priest, if you look closely, there are two dragons sitting on a pillar each opposing each other, they are harmless and don't care that you kill their priest, but, well, they'll get hostile if attacked, which I imagine it was your Storm Call's fault

Why do people talk about named dragons like they're some kind of challenge? As far as I'm aware they are no different to the standard dragons apart from Alduin and Odahviing.

It kind of annoys me how they tend to appear more in certain areas. EVERY time I do to Dawnstar an Ancient Dragon shows up, those thing are worse than Alduin by a mile, I play on Expert and their fire tends to lead to a one hit kill. It could be worse seeing as they use Frost a lot too which isn't as bad since I'm playing a Nord character.
